Crystal Palace (A) Sat 31 Jan 2015, 15:00, Barclays Premier League
by Adam Clark @efc_adamclark 24 April 2012 09:12
The views on this page are taken from the local and national media and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton. EVERTON FC left back Leighton Baines said he was thrilled to be named in the PFA Premier League team of the year – even if he insists he does not deserve the honour.The 27-year-old was voted as the top flight's best left-back by his fellow professionals, when then team was revealed at the PFA Awards dinner at the Grosvenor Hotel in London on Sunday.Baines, who is currently out with a hamstring injury and missed Everton's 4-4 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford, was given the nod ahead of players like Ashley Cole, Patrice Evra and Gael Clichy.He had played every minute of every Everton league game until he was rested for the Easter Monday win over Sunderland, but the typically honest England defender was not convinced his form has been the best in the league.He said: "I didn't really feel like I should be in it to be honest, but I was still delighted to be chosen – especially because it's voted by players which means a lot. It's nice to be recognised in that category of players like Clichy and Cole."I don't think I've been the best left-back in league this season, but if other people think I have then obviously that's great.It's a surprise, there have been players who I feel have done better."Robin van Persie won the PFA Player of the Year award, with Kyle Walker was named PFA Young Player of the Year.And Baines had no quarrels with the other selections. "I agree with the team – I put Van Persie down as my player of the season and Kyle Walker has had a fantastic season too," he said. "I don't think anyone could argue with that."The team which is voted for by other players is usually fairly accurate."One player who did not make the line-up but has still impressed this term has been on-loan Swansea midfielder Glyfi Sigurdsson, who Everton are monitoring.Sigurdsson, 22, has scored seven goals in 14 games for the Swans since his January loan switch from German club Hoffenheim, and was watched by Blues first team coach Jimmy Lumsden on Saturday, along with scouts from Liverpool, Newcastle and Manchester United.Meanwhile, Everton's reserve team ended their season with a 2-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers yesterday.Second-half goals from Jose Baxter and Hallam Hope saw Alan Stubbs' men complete their home fixtures for the season with a deserved victory.Seamus Coleman played at right-back in the victory, while Ross Barkley, Shane Duffy and David Weir added further first-team experience.IT'S a quiz question to baffle even the most clued-in football anorak.Everton FC, the club which seems to have spent the entire Premier League era searching for a goalscorer, has THREE players in the Premier League's all-time minute-to-goal scorers' chart.No prizes for guessing that the red-hot Nikica Jelavic is one. But who are the other marksmen whose goalscoring ratios has put even Thierry Henryin the shade?Newcastle's stunningly successful January signing, Papiss Cisse, tops the chart with a goal every 68 minutes since he arrived on Tyneside from Freiburg. But second on the list, with a goal every 92 minutes, is another striking import who was in action for Everton reserves yesterday – Apostolos Vellios.After a five-minute cameo against Aston Villa, the Greek striker scored as a second half substitute against Wigan, took just 10 seconds to score after coming on at Stamford Bridge – then scored against Bolton Wanderers a full three minutes after entering the fray!Nick Chadwick was another striking supersub who burst onto the scene in 2001.After a handful of fleeting substitute appearances during the closing stages of Walter Smith's reign as manager, it was the arrival of David Moyes which coaxed a prolific burst.Chadwick scored against Bolton just 16 minutes after coming on, added another against Leicester two minutes after replacing Tomasz Radzinski then enjoyed his first full 90 minutes against Blackburn a fortnight later. He scored again.Overtaken in the strikers' pecking order by one Wayne Rooney, Chadwick left Goodison but continued to score goals for Derby, Millwall, Hereford, Shrewsbury, Chester, Barrow and Stockport.He is still playing for League Two club Plymouth Argyle and still scoring – although not as prolifically as he did in his brief Premier League spell.PREM ALL-TIME HIGHEST MINUTE-TO-GOAL SCORERS: 1. Papiss Cisse (Newcastle 2012) 11 goals, 68.5 mins per goal; 2. 2. Apostolos Vellios (Everton 2010-12) 3, 92.3; 3. Steve Thompson (Burnley 2009-10) 4, 95; 4. Pavel Pogrebnyak (Fulham 2012) 6, 105.8; 5. Sergio Aguero (Man City 2011-12) 22, 106.7; 6. Nikica Jelavic (Everton 2012) 6, 115.5; 7. Nick Chadwick (Everton 2001-05) 3 120; 8. Thierry Henry (Arsenal 2000-12) 176, 121.1; 9. Javier Hernandez (Man Utd 2010-12) 23, 124.8; 10. Mario Balotelli (Man City 2010-12) 19, 126.2.AN EVERTON FC fan won £4,000 when he predicted the Blues would draw 4-4 with Manchester United – and Nikica Jelavic score the first goal.The anonymous fan, from Preston, staked £1 with Sky Bet at odds of 4,000-1.He said: "I prefer to bet on the big scores. Pity I didn't put a fiver on!"NEVILLE SOUTHALL says he is baffled by the lack of Everton FC players in PFA top flight teams of the year – after Leighton Baines became the first to make the cut in 22 years.The goalkeeping legend was the last Toffees player to be included in 1990, until Baines was revealed as the Premier League's top left-back in the estimation of his fellow professionals on Sunday.But Southall believes the absence of men like Tim Cahill and Duncan Ferguson is down to a traditional 'big club' bias from some players, who are influenced by the national media and Sky Sports coverage.He said: "It's baffling really. Somebody said that Bainesy was the first since I got the vote, and I couldn't believe guys like Cahill weren't there."It was ironic because I was watching the game against Manchester United on Sunday and they had an interview with Duncan Ferguson beforehand."Then they went back to the studio and Gary Neville was saying how United always had to formulate a special plan for dealing with him. I'm sure it wasn't just United who hated playing against him. How was Dunc not in the voting over the years?"Maybe players are influenced by the TV and the idea of top clubs who regularly win things. Scott Parker was rightly the top man last season and he's in it again this year – but he was still a great player before he joined Spurs."I look at players like Sylvain Distin who has been a consistent performer for so many top flight clubs and wonder how he hasn't made it. Is it because he hasn't played for a London club or Man United?"Southall, who was named on the PFA Team of the Year four consecutive times, and was listed as one of the world's top 10 goalkeepers by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics on four occasions, said players should vote on form."It makes me laugh when you pick up the Sunday paper and see stories about Leighton Baines being linked with Manchester United in the summer," he added."If he'd been at Old Trafford for a few seasons he'd probably have been in the PFA team already. There's that perception about the top clubs and it's biased."David Moyes has urged his Everton board to act decisively to give him a chance of joining the Premier League elite. The Blues boss wants funds for around three recruits early in the summer so he can start to plan his campaign.
DAVID MOYES wants owner Bill Kenwright to loosen the purse strings in the summer — to avoid another season playing catch-up.Everton have lost just three in 19 games after Nikica Jelavic, Darron Gibson and Steven Pienaar arrived in January.The seventh-placed Toffees overturned a two-goal deficit twice on Sunday to snatch an amazing 4-4 draw at Manchester United.But fans have been left to wonder where they would be if the side began the season with a flier.Goodison boss Moyes said: "If you can do your recruitment early it makes a big difference to your group and gives them a chance to bed-in and you get better results sooner."We were able to get some in January which made a massive difference."Moyes, whose future remains cloudy, will discover his budget when he sits down with Kenwright for end-of-season talks.

Autodesk to Buy Moldflow
SAN FRANCISCO -- Autodesk (ADSK - Get Report) will buy Framingham, Mass.-based Moldflow (MFLO), the companies announced late Thursday.
The San Rafael, Calif.-based supplier of engineering design software said it would pay $22 a share in cash, or about $297 million after receiving Moldflow's cash on hand. The price represents a 12% premium to Moldflow's closing price of $19.61. The deal is expected to close by the end of June.
Moldflow, which develops software for the design of plastic components, had revenue of $55.9 million in 2007. It has 285 employees. The company will expand Autodesk's line of digital prototyping software.
Autodesk is maintaining its outlook for EPS, excluding items, of $2.20 to $2.30 for fiscal 2009, which ends in January, CEO Carl Bass said on a conference call. Analysts expect full-year EPS, less items, of $2.22, according to Thomson Financial.
The acquisition is expected to dilute second-quarter EPS, excluding special items, by 1 to 2 cents. For the quarter, Autodesk expects to write down $11 million in Moldflow deferred revenue and $14 million in research and development, Bass said. Because of the sizeable revenue write-downs, the company is not assuming any revenue contribution from Moldflow for 2009. Autodesk had 2007 revenue of $1.6 billion and $918 million in cash at the end of the fiscal year. The company may draw upon a line of credit to complete the transaction, Bass said. The computer-aided design software company raised its guidance Apr. 24 for the first quarter ended Wednesday to a range of $590 million to $595 million. Among engineering software stocks, Autodesk may be compared with Parametric Technology (PMTC).Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Lou Lebedin, a former Bear Stearns Cos. executive who had become JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM:US)'s global head of prime brokerage, is being replaced in that role, according to three people familiar with the situation.
Teresa Heitsenrether, 47, based in London, will take over for Lebedin, 54, said two of the people, who declined to be identified because the changes aren't public. Heitsenrether, who worked at JPMorgan before the New York-based bank bought Bear Stearns, was named co-head of fixed-income prime brokerage in 2008 when Lebedin took charge of the equity side.
JPMorgan, the biggest U.S. bank by assets, had the sixth- biggest prime brokerage, according to a ranking by client assets in Global Custodian magazine's 2011 survey. The bank expanded its prime brokerage in Europe last year and plans a similar move in Asia this year, Jes Staley, chief executive officer of JPMorgan's investment bank, said in a February presentation.
Prime brokerages provide financing and administrative services such as lending, clearing trades and record-keeping that help managers run their hedge funds.
The changes are taking place more than two months after Sandie O'Connor was promoted to treasurer. O'Connor previously oversaw prime brokerage, futures and options, over-the-counter derivatives clearing and broker-dealer services. Two of those units, prime brokerage and broker-dealer services, now report to John Horner.
Lebedin was tapped to run JPMorgan's equity prime brokerage in 2008 when JPMorgan bought Bear Stearns, where he held the same role. In March he was named sole head of global prime brokerage when his co-head, London-based Andrea Angelone, was moved to run the bank's equity treasury business, the Wall Street Journal reported on March 23.
Jennifer Zuccarelli, a bank spokeswoman, declined to comment, and Lebedin didn't return a phone message.

TravelPod Member ReviewsFairmont The Norfolk Nairobi
This hotel was really good. The food was amazing and there was a historic vibe to the building. There was a personal trainer and many other luxurious that made the stay special.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
A bit disappointed that the quoted rate was exclusive of Kenya taxes of 29%. This made a big difference to the total charges. The bar was pleasant and drinks prices reasonable. Breakfast buffet price steep, and only on the second query were we offered a cheaper rate (about $US10pp) for coffee and pastries alone. Room was nice, and wifi included in the rate.

Dear Jane: How Do I Get to TRUE Love?
Jane Garapick is the popular writer of GettingToTrueLove.com. Her mission is to provide words of wisdom during tough times. Originally from Vancouver, British Columbia, Jane now lives in Washington State with her husband and two children. In her early career, Jane volunteered as a suicide prevention counselor and conducted workshops to high school students who were at risk. She is a psychology graduate of Simon Fraser University and applies both her personal life experiences and academic background towards guiding her readers towards love supporting choices. After discovering Jane's blog, I have become a regular reader, and enjoy the down-to-Earth mother-sister wisdom in her weekly posts. Sometimes the best people to go to for true love advice are those who have the kind of relationship you want.
1. What inspired you to starting your blog Getting to TRUE Love?
It began with a conversation I was having with one of my friends from my single days, reminiscing about the guys we used to date, and how different they were from the ones we actually married. I then realized that I wanted to spread this message to as many single women out there as I could. Women who, like I used to, think that they know what are the most important qualities for a guy to have, but many of those qualities are actually not what really matters when you're married and living the everyday life together as a married couple.
For example I realized that the types of men I was attracted to, men that at the time held so much power over me, would, in reality, have made the worst possible husbands and fathers. I now see it as a gift that things didn't work out with them, and I've now learned from experience what is really important. I wanted to spare other single women so much of the pain and heartbreak of what I went through because I really understand where they're coming from and what they're going through having been there myself not too long ago. Then, when I came across Brene Brown and read her work and saw that she was talking about the subject of shame and authenticity that relates directly to the place I was coming from, she further inspired me to do this. When I saw a video of her speaking and saw that she was just a regular person with a passion for helping people, I had my "aha" moment and realized this was the time!
2. Is there a particular purpose that your blog is for?
To spread this message to as many women as possible who might be even slightly ready to hear what someone else might have to say; someone who's been there, who gets them, who understands and wants them to know they're not alone!
3. There are plenty of blogs on finding love out there, what is different about yours?

I'm in the market for a slipcover sofa and wonder how the quality of ballard designs compares with pottery barn. Pottery Barn is more expensive and I don't mind paying more if it will last much longer. But now I'm skeptical after reading reviews of the pottery barn slipcovers that don't hold up well.
I would appreciate anyones opinion of either. Thanks!! |

Have you looked at Lee Industries? They make a slip-covered product called Coveralls. Their frames are 8-way hand-tied. An independent retailer in my city sells their line. I don't personally own their product, but have seen it and it looks nice. You can order swatches from their website. |

hello, ive long been a fan of your work since i had the pleasure of reading exile in azeroth a year ago or so. coming back to aff after many months i came back to your stories, finding the links you had on your page. I just finish reading the banana offensive.
(all in one sitting, its 9am and i have work in a hour or so and i didnt sleep a wink! lol)
and let me tell you, i just loved it. Id always wondered how Eraik met Erandil, and i see now Ish somewhat created the riff between Erandil and Araendir.
(sorry if i spelt those wrong tis been a long night heh)
and damn right imma read the rest of them, i love how you make your characters, i like how Erandil takes after his parents so much. (its no wonder hes messed up XD)
and there was so many parts of the story that had me laughing or gasping when i figured something out.
you truely have a talent for writing, i admire that, i think i only saw perhaps one mistake in the whole thing.
eagerly awaiting more of your story Exile in azeroth, its currently my fave altho that may change when i read your other stories. and what happened to Cael? A idiot's tale is many years in the future i gather and thats been bugging me for quite some time now.
you got some bitchin art work as well <3
thanks for taking the time to bare with my terrible typing right now (

I'm working on EIA as soon as I finish Idiot and thankfully, that looks like it's gonna be soon. I'm on a bit of a roll at the moment lol. Cael ends up with Mehlar in EIA but me thinks he is going to be making a bit of a disturbing appearance after Idiot, when I get to writing about Northrend
Aerandir and Eraik are gonna have to be on their toes lol.
And glad you like my art! I'm just starting to get it to a place where I'm happy with it myself lol. So yeah, thanks again for dropping me a note, and such a good one hehe!

ok finally finished forsaken tale, took a while been busy with life and killing Sarufang xD first off id like to say the epilogue made me cry, D: i loved brylla, she was so... her, i felt like she was somone id known for a long time.
theres a few things tho that didnt make sense to me though maybe its cause i read the stories in the wrong order.
Earik does mehlar, uh wth, it was hot, but if it did happen b4 exile then why did he freak out in exile about being gay and not telling the other paladins, and if its after, doesnt he dislike mehlar?
in exile Erandil and Earik met Brylla, since she dies in forsaken, im assuming exile was b4 forsaken but she doesnt seem to remember ever meeting them, or the fact that Erandil can speak common. nor do they remember her. i would of thought atleast Earik would of.
dont get me wrong, i loved your stories, just thought id point out somethings to you, i know youve prolly re-written them over a bazillion times and maybe forgot some stuff and thats why it seemes confusing to me.
finished idiot as well, and started on your newest story n.n very nice job, i adore Erandil not being such a complete douche bag when hes in the presence of Morag. and i hope things work out for Jyll.
you need some half elf and pally pron in ur next chappy stat! XD i mean hes been gone so long looking for Jyll, haha their so my fave couple <3
hope to see more from you, dont work your self to death though girl, damn i lose the internet for a week and you suddenly finished idiot, it was a very happy day indeed lol

Aww I'm so glad you liked Brylla, I really liked her too actually I think she is one of my favourite female characters. She's really unassuming and pretty brave I think. I mean, she is terrified for most of the story but she still forces herself to keep going. That's pretty courageous I think but anyway, I could be biased haha.
And thanks heaps for picking things up too, it's really helpful. You're right, I have re-written the stupid things that many times I get mixed up hahaha. So yeah, Forsaken comes between Exile and Idiot. I wrote Forsaken way before I wrote Exile though (wrote it after Idiot too, actually haha), which is why there was no recognition between Erandil and Brylla. I think that if I were going to re-write it (which I'm not...please God, don't let me obsess anymore
( haha)I'd make it that she didn't recognise him because he was a high elf the first time he met her and a blood elf the second. I don't know why he wouldn't recognise her though either, Id have to think about that one... and yeah, the language thing. Especially after the first story, Erandil really, REALLY hates humans so he refuses to speak common so if I re-wrote it (pray pray pray I dont!) I'd probably make that he refused to speak common to Brylla. And yeah! Eraik and Mehlar reowr! hahaha that was a little bit of a treat for me, two beefcakes having at it hahah, nice! So yeah, another problem with writing backwards haha. But anyway, to the point, Mehlar and Eraik. See they are both blood elves in the Forsaken and in the story I will eventually write between Exile and Forsaken, one of the big things I want to look at is how the high elves turned into blood elves. I mean, especially the paladins. Up until Arthas blew up the Sunwell they followed the light, then in BC they kidnapped what is essentially an angel, chained him up under their city (in the same place they kept their leper gnome slaves, poor lil mites lol)and sucked the light from him to power their paladin ways lol. So they are really like fallen paladins. They really aren't nice people hey, the blood elves hahaha. They even kicked the other high elves out of Silvermoon who didn't want to suck the mana from demons, even though they were their people until they turned into blood elves. I kind of imagine that kind of thing would split families and everything but they did it without remorse. So to my way of thinking, most of them would definitely have had an attitude where they didn't care what anyone else thought of them, and if anyone had anything to say they'd smite their butts - which is pretty much exactly the opposite to what Mehlar and Eraik (and all high elves paladins especially) would have been like when they followed the light. Eraik is going to go through a really bitter, disillusioned phase in the story between Exile and Forsaken but by the time he hooks up with Mehlar, he's kind of at peace with himself again. He definitely doesn't care about making waves the way he did in Exile. That was the inexperienced young elf thing in him where he didn't want to cause problems for Erandil by offending the human paladins who he thought were fundies (or fanatics or something haha!). By the time Idiot comes around he is starting to find his way back to where he was and is a little more 'settled'. In the story (still in my head) set in WoTLK times, he will be back to where he was in Exile because in the latest expansion I think the Naru the belfs were sucking dry in BC got kidnapped by Kael (thas? whatever his name is, the belf prince anyway) so the belf paladin order is trying to find a new source of light to draw on, and I can't remember why but I got the impression the new source would be a little more above board. So yeah. Right or wrong, I can't think of belfs (lore wise anyway) in BC as anything more than magic addicted, angel kidnapping, leper gnome slavers haha. I mean, understandable, they feel they got betrayed by the Alliance and nearly their entire population was wiped out by the scourge (I think lore wise that less than 10% of the high elves survived so that is a lot of sorrow and grief). Their Sunwell, the source of just about everything they are was absolutely annihilated, their city was almost razed and they were forced to make tough decisions (splitting their people up) so yeah, I think Eraik and ERandil would be a little pissy lol.
Anyway, back to the present! I'm working on the ERaik/Aerandir lurve too. It's all good with these older stories. They are already written, I just basically have to post them lol. Things will slow down again once I get to the new ones...
Argh, when will I ever get over this obsession?
( lol. Thanks heaps for reading and bringing the little discrepancies to my attention. It really helps and no doubt one day when I obsess again and re-write them, I'll already have a head start on what to fix haha. thanks again, ya rock !

I know what you mean though, there's a tendency to view 7 as a 'meh' score, when it really isn't

There Is No Doubting Ole Miss' Landshark Defense After Win over Texas A&M
Lack of respect?
No. 3 Ole Miss' defense certainly played like one that felt disrespected on Saturday night in a 35-20 win, as the Rebels defense—known as the "landsharks"—dominated the high-octane Texas A&M offense on the road at hostile Kyle Field.
What's that? Texas A&M gained 455 yards and quarterback Kenny Hill threw for 401?
As NFL.com's Chase Goodbread notes, Hill's stats lie:
Ole Miss picked off Hill twice, including a 75-yard interception return for a touchdown by safety Cody Prewitt early in the second quarter that put the Rebels up 21-0.
Hill was sacked twice and constantly pressured by the fast and physical Rebel front seven, led by sophomore defensive tackle Robert Nkemdiche. Hill also fumbled on the first play of the fourth quarter, which Keith Lewis returned for a touchdown to make it 35-7.
It was the Rebel rush defense that really led the charge.
The Aggies managed just 54 rushing yards on the night, and a mind-boggling 1.5 yards per rush. Holes at the line of scrimmage were more myth than reality for running backs Tra Carson, Trey Williams and Brandon Williams.
"That was really important," Nkemdiche said in quotes emailed by Texas A&M. "To come out there with great intensity in a hostile in environment, it was crazy. I couldn't even hear at the beginning of the game. Defense was great. We came out and we didn't let them get anything. Going into halftime 21-0 was really big for us."
Texas A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin credited the Rebels for forcing the Aggies to be one-dimensional by shutting down the ground game, according to Mike McCoy of ABC 40 in College Station.
There's no doubt that this defense is not only a championship-caliber defense, but it's the best defense in the nation. Throw the statistics out the window, this defense changes games.
This team has a disruptive interior lineman in Nkemdiche, an ultra-athletic linebacking corps and a secondary—led by Prewitt—that is great in coverage and against the run.
Ole Miss' defense is the most complete defense in the nation, and whether the "good Bo" or "bad Bo" version of quarterback Bo Wallace shows up, the defense is going to not only keep the Rebels in games, but could determine the outcome of games.
It's rare that a defense can do that.
The Rebels still have several challenges in front of them, including home tilts vs. the potent offenses of Auburn and Mississippi State. At this point, is there any reason to doubt the Rebels?
If the defense keeps playing this way, nope.
It's the best defense in the country, and there isn't a close second.

LSU vs. Florida: Game Grades, Analysis for Tigers and Gators
In a very well-contested SEC game, LSU was able to come away with a 30-27 win against Florida. The final box score can be found here via NCAA.com.
Both teams ran the ball well, both made huge pass plays late in the game and both teams made plays on defense. But at the end of the night, it was Florida that made the most mistakes, leading to the Tigers kicking a 50-yard field goal with three seconds left to steal one at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.
Here are some game grades for both the Tigers and the Gators.
Passing Offense
It was not a good night in the air for Anthony Jennings. However, he did throw a 41-yard pass to Travin Dural late in the fourth quarter, which set up a Dural 11-yard touchdown reception two plays later. In Jennings' defense, he was going up against an aggressive Florida front seven, and that gave the secondary free range to be aggressive with the LSU receivers. Jennings needs to be more consistent, but he did just enough to win the game.
Running Offense
As much as the passing offense struggled at times, that was not the case for the running game. Leonard Fournette ran hard, tallying 140 yards on 27 carries and scoring two touchdowns. Terrence Magee added 50 yards on six carries and Kenny Hilliard also had a rushing touchdown. No matter who was in at running back, the Tigers ran the ball well; all three brought something different to the table.
Passing Defense
Jeff Driskel does not throw the ball well downfield, and LSU knew that. Despite hitting on a few big throws, Driskel could not shake the secondary, which is why he threw two interceptions. One of the plays of the game came when Ricky Jefferson picked off Driskel late in the fourth quarter, which led to the Tigers' game-winning field goal.
Running Defense
Driskel was the leading rusher for the Gators, with 71 yards on 21 carries. The reason he was the leading rusher was the fact that the front seven for LSU took Matt Jones out of the game, and Kelvin Taylor was a non-factor. After giving up nearly 300 yards on the ground against Auburn, LSU tightened their gaps and played their responsibilities, which is why Florida averaged only 3.8 yards per carry.
Special Teams
LSU special teams did not play well, but they were the reason they won. The punt-coverage team could not contain Andre Debose, and Colby Delahoussaye missed an extra point in the third quarter. But as it was mentioned earlier, Delahoussaye kicked the game-winning field goal of 50 yards. So the special teams saved the day, but had they played better at the beginning of the game, Florida would not have scored 14 of its points.
Les Miles did a good job getting his team ready for a tough SEC road contest after getting blown out at Auburn last week. Despite being down by 10 early in the game, his players continued to fight and got better as the game went on. Miles knows he has a young team, but he's been patient with them, and it paid off tonight.
Passing Offense
Driskel made a few plays with his arm that led to points, but he was still inconsistent like he has been all season. He did throw two interceptions, and the second one he threw cost the Gators the game. Driskel is a gutsy quarterback, but in order for the Gators to win the SEC East, they will need to throw the ball downfield consistently, and Driskel doesn't have it.
Running Offense
Driskel did a solid job running the ball, as he gained 71 yards on 21 carries. However, 59 of those yards came in the first half, and no other running back had more than 35 yards. The running game was hurting with the loss of Matt Jones, who left the game with a nagging injury. Mack Brown and Kelvin Taylor are quality backs, but they were a nonfactor against LSU.
Passing Defense
Jennings did find Dural in the fourth quarter, but he was inconsistent the majority of the game because the Florida defense pressured him all game long. Credit goes to the Florida front seven, as they recorded four sacks and have tallied 10 sacks the last two games. Dante Fowler was a monster for Florida with four sacks and two quarterback pressures.
Running Defense
The run defense for Florida could have been better, though. The group could not stop Fournette as he was bowling over defenders. That led to Magee getting 50 yards, and Hilliard was able to get in the mix as he scored a touchdown. That is something the Gators will have to work on moving forward.
Special Teams
One of the reasons Florida was able to lead most of the game as well as come back to tie it was the play of the special teams. Andre Debose has a big night in the return game, as he totaled 115 punt return yards and one touchdown. Kyle Christy punted the ball well with two punts over 50 yards and one landing inside the 20-yard line. And Francisco Velez was able to hit on both of his field goals.
Some may not agree, but Will Muschamp did a solid job preparing his team for this game. Had Driskel not thrown the pick at the end of the game, the Gators would have won and made some noise in the SEC East race. Even when LSU took the lead in the third quarter, the Gators kept fighting on offense, defense and special teams, and Muschamp was a big reason for that.

Ole Miss vs. Texas A&M: Game Grades, Analysis for Rebels and Aggies
Bo Wallace ran for a pair of touchdowns during the first quarter, and the third-ranked Ole Miss Rebels defense flat-out demolished the No. 14 Texas A&M Aggies 35-20.
Ole Miss
The outcome was hardly ever in doubt, and the Rebels' grades certainly reflect their outstanding performance Saturday evening.
Pass Offense: Save for a single throw, Bo Wallace had a brilliant night under center. The senior quarterback finished the game 13-of-19 for 178 yards, connecting with Quincy Adeboyejo for a 33-yard touchdown. Laquon Treadwell added five receptions for 53 yards.
Run Offense: Though Ole Miss didn't rely on the ground game, Wallace and Jaylen Walton rushed for 50 and 49 yards, respectively. Most importantly, however, the Rebels' offensive line was absolutely stellar throughout the blowout.
Pass Defense: The box score shows a 79.2 percent completion clip for Kenny Hill, but the Landsharks forced checkdowns and dump-offs all night long. Cody Prewitt's pick-six gave Ole Miss a 21-point lead that completely silenced the record-setting Kyle Field crowd.
Run Defense: Admittedly, Texas A&M does not have a formidable rushing attack, so it's no surprise the Rebels locked the Aggies down. With that being said, Ole Miss still limited the A&M backs to 54 yards on 35 carries.
Special Teams: From the outset, the Rebels won all three phases—Walton opened the game with a 40-yard kick return. Will Gleason averaged 42.7 yards per punt, and Gary Wunderlich's extra point that ricocheted off the upright and in was the lone near-mistake.
Coaching: Hugh Freeze may have pieced together the best defense in the entire nation. Under his leadership, Ole Miss has become a national title threat. The Rebels coaching staff called a flawless game en route to a dominant conference victory.
Texas A&M
Pass Offense: Kenny Hill picked apart the Ole Miss defense for 401 yards and two touchdowns, right? Wrong. The sophomore managed just 204 of his final tally while the Rebels built at 35-7 lead, spending the fourth quarter facing a prevent-heavy defense and racking up his yards that way.
Run Offense: "Nonexistent" seems like a suitable way to describe the Texas A&M ground game. Tra Carson, Brandon Williams, Trey Williams and Hill combined to manage a pitiful 1.5 yards per attempt.
Pass Defense: Myles Garrett is inching closer toward the SEC freshman sack record, and that's the only positive thing Texas A&M's pass defense has at this point.
Run Defense: The longest run the Aggies surrendered gained just 16 yards, but the Aggies struggled to contain zone reads and jet sweeps. Ultimately, Texas A&M's front seven wasn't shredded but couldn't stop Ole Miss, either.
Special Teams: Though a fake field goal failed terribly, Josh Lambo tacked on a pair of extra points. Drew Kaser blasted six punts and earned a 50.7-yard average, bolstering his #Kaser4Heisman campaign once again.
Coaching: What exactly was Kevin Sumlin thinking when he called that fake field goal down 21 points? Does Texas A&M even know what defense is? What has happened to the Aggies' explosive offense? Yeah, it was a bad night for the coaches.

Texas A&M vs. Ole Miss: How Rebels' Win Reshapes Playoff Picture
No. 3 Ole Miss (6-0 overall, 3-0 SEC) earned its keep as one of the top teams in the nation after handily defeating No. 14 Texas A&M 35-20 for a crucial SEC road win.
The Rebels' 15-point victory doesn't so much shake up the rankings as it does confirm one undeniable fact: The state of Mississippi is the dominant force in college football right now.
Their defense is nearly impenetrable and scores about as often as it allows others to do the same, per SportsCenter:
The Mississippi State Bulldogs (6-0, 3-0) defeated No. 2 Auburn (5-1, 2-1) by a score of 38-23 and look like the cream of the Southeastern Conference crop with Dak Prescott at the helm.
Considering No. 1 Florida State went on cruise control against Syracuse, save for quarterback Jameis Winston, expect one of the Mississippi squads to top the polls next week.
Here is a look at the performances of AP Top-10 teams after Saturday and what those results mean for the inaugural College Football Playoff:
Kenny Hill is a fine college quarterback, but the last two weeks have proved that he is no world beater, and the SEC West belongs to either Ole Miss or Mississippi State.
CBS Sports' Gary Parrish thinks the national title conversation starts (and perhaps ends) with these two teams:
Alabama (5-1, 2-1) may have defeated Arkansas (3-3, 0-3), but its limp, mistake-riddled performance doesn't bode well for its future. The Crimson Tide fumbled twice on special teams and committed a number of boneheaded penalties.
Voters likely won't forget this desultory display, which likely drops them below Auburn in the eyes of many observers. However, a win is a win and a one-loss Alabama could move up should either Mississippi school slip up.
If there is a team from the SEC East to challenge either Ole Miss or Mississippi State, its the No. 13 Georgia Bulldogs (5-1, 3-1), who shut out No. 23 Missouri and put up 34 points of their own despite not having running back Todd Gurley in pads and on the gridiron.
Elsewhere in the college football landscape, the Big 12 looks chock full of top-tier teams. No. 5 Baylor finally got a game against a ranked opponent and took its season to the brink, eventually pulling out a come-from-behind 61-58 victory against No. 9 TCU.
Quarterback Bryce Petty threw six touchdowns and two interceptions, but those picks were just his second and third of the young season, and he looks to be in command of the offense. The Bears may have issues on defense, but everyone knows this offense is capable of putting up huge numbers against just about anybody.
However, Sports Illustrated's Andrew Perloff isn't quite sure what to make of Baylor after the headline-grabbing win:
No. 11 Oklahoma (5-1, 2-1) is still lurking after defeating Texas, and No. 16 Oklahoma State (5-1, 3-0) could vault up the rankings should it beat the Horned Frogs in Week 8.
The playoff picture isn't shaping up well for the Pac-12, with the dominance of the SEC, Big 12 and undefeated No. 6 Notre Dame still in the fold. Oregon still has an outside shot, but it will have to run the table and need No. 10 Arizona to lose a couple of games.
No. 8 Michigan State is still in the hunt after handily dispatching Purdue, but the Spartans have a relatively weak upcoming schedule and needed the defense to bail them out against the Boilermakers. Of course, the opinions of others don't bother star defensive end Shilique Calhoun.
"If people want to look at the score and say that Michigan State's not a good team, that's fine by me," he said, via Joe Rexrode of the Detroit Free Press. "We're still gonna play 'Spartan Dawg' football no matter what."
Michigan State will need to vastly outplay the likes of Ohio State, Indiana and Rutgers to garner enough attention and leapfrog teams from the more powerful conferences. Still, the defense led by Calhoun and linebacker Ed Davis is one of the best in the nation and can keep the Spartans in the playoff hunt.
Every college football fan should circle November 29 on their calendar; that's when Ole Miss takes on Mississippi State. Should both teams remain undefeated up to that point, the loser of that titanic clash could still very well make the College Football Playoff. The fact that these two teams don't play each other until the last week of the regular season will help prevent another team from rising up in the power vacuum that would be created by a loss for either Mississippi team.
Then again, this college football season has proved that the preseason rankings have little to no bearing on future performance, and it's high time the phrase "any given Saturday" entered the American sporting lexicon.

LSU's Leonard Fournette Realizes Potential, Gives Fans Look at Future in Win
BUGA Nation hit primetime television Saturday night.
Finally, LSU running back Leonard Fournette lived up to the hype. Fournette rushed for a career-high 140 yards and two touchdowns in a 30-27 victory over Florida.
LSU head coach Les Miles made the best coaching decision of the season by scratching the running back by committee against the Gators. Fournette took 27 of the Tigers' 50 carries and never wavered.
Miles pumped Fournette up in the preseason unlike any other player he had before. Florida was the first time he trusted the 5-star true freshman to be the focal point of the offense.
About time.
Fournette finally got the touches he deserved. His 27 carries were two more than what he got against Wisconsin, Mississippi State and Auburn combined.
Sure, Fournette struggled to start the season. But the Tigers abandoned him too early against Auburn and Mississippi State. Miles and offensive coordinator Cam Cameron gave the other running backs carries that should have gone to him.
Fournette made defenders miss and powered through arm tackles. On his first touchdown run, he burst through a tackler at the goal line.
This is a freshman. This is a GROWN MAN! @LSUfball's Leonard Fournette rumbles for the 12-yd TD. #LSUvsUF » http://t.co/rptqGAQDBm
— SEC Network (@SECNetwork) October 12, 2014On his second, he skyrocketed over the pile from two yards out.
121 and 2 TD's for Fournette with quarter to go. RT @FanSidedGIF: VINE - Fournette run for 2 yds for a TD #LSUhttps://t.co/5ZTDyXDcNX
— Patrick Schmidt (@PatrickASchmidt) October 12, 2014Nearly every Fournette run featured a massive collision. Those hits began taking their toll on the Gators defense. All-SEC corner Vernon Hargreaves III was knocked out of the game while tackling him. Hargreaves' absence was felt when Tigers quarterback Anthony Jennings completed clutch passes late to Travin Dural.
Jennings struggled through the air until late in the game. Nearly half of his completions went to fullback Melvin Jones. It is evident the LSU passing attack looks still has a long way to go.
If Fournette and the LSU offensive line continue to play dominant football, the passing game will continue to improve. Miles can also play his preferred old-school, smash-mouth football, which is what has gotten him to 100 wins at LSU.
The Tigers' most favorable matchup left will be 5-1 Kentucky next Saturday in Baton Rouge. After that, the Tigers will have Ole Miss, Alabama, Arkansas and Texas A&M.
There are no easy victories left for LSU, but the best path is with Fournette leading the charge.

Watch Travin Dural Snatch the Ball for a 1-Handed TD Grab
Two-handed catches are nice, but one-handed catches are special—especially when they happen in the end zone.
Florida Gators wide receiver Travin Dural only needed one hand to come down with a ridiculous touchdown grab vs. Florida.
Was this the best catch of Week 7?

Ole Miss vs. Texas A&M: Score and Twitter Reaction
Maybe Bo Wallace's "Bad Bo" persona is a thing of the past.
The Ole Miss quarterback threw for 178 yards and a touchdown in addition to 50 yards and two touchdowns on the ground as the third-ranked Rebels dispatched of No. 14 Texas A&M, 35-20, Saturday night at Kyle Field in College Station.
After Ole Miss' 23-17 over then-No. 3 Alabama, Wallace took exception to those characterizing him as some sort of Jekyll and Hyde QB.
"That thing's the most annoying thing I've ever heard," he said, reports Brandon Speck of Fox Sports South.
Even after helping lead the Rebels to that historic upset over the Crimson Tide, Wallace had his fair share of doubters. ESPN's Bomani Jones pointed out that the senior signal-caller wasn't far removed from his somewhat lackluster performance in a 24-3 win over Memphis (22-37, 248 yards, 2 TDs, 2 INTs):
Wallace didn't need to torch the Aggie secondary for a Heisman Trophy-level performance. As long as he limited the turnovers and didn't lean too heavily on the Ole Miss defense, the Rebels would be in a position to win.
According to NCAA.com, Texas A&M averaged 395.2 passing yards (fifth) and 188 rushing yards (47th) a game entering Saturday.
The Ole Miss defense held the Aggies to 455 total yards, including 54 on the ground. Quarterback Kenny Hill was 42-of-53 for 401 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions.
The Rebels made a compelling argument as to why they have the best defense in the country on the back of Saturday's win. ESPN.com's Travis Haney went so far as to say that defensive tackle Robert Nkemdiche might be worthy of an invite to New York City for the Heisman presentation:
Taking an early lead helped Wallace and the Rebels offense in a big way. On the third drive of the game, Ole Miss went 69 yards in 1:25 to grab a 7-0 advantage following a four-yard touchdown run from Wallace, who was 2-of-3 for 52 yards on the drive. Those two passes set up the TD, as highlighted by Sam Kahn Jr. of ESPNCFB:
The Rebels got the ball back on their own 1-yard line after Texas A&M punter Drew Kaser placed the ball right on the goal line.
Wallace needed 4:09 to go nearly the length of the field, capping the drive with his second rushing touchdown of the game. He completed all four of his passes for 52 yards on the drive.
Gabe Bock of TexAgs Radio felt that the A&M defense wasn't doing nearly enough to make things difficult for Wallace and the Ole Miss offense:
NFL.com's Bryan Fischer noted that the two scoring drives eliminated any possibility that the Rebels were still basking in the glory of their victory over Alabama:
Things got even better for Ole Miss on Texas A&M's next drive. Rebels defensive back Cody Prewitt intercepted a Hill pass and returned it 75 yards for a touchdown, giving the road team a 21-0 lead with 11:56 to go in the first half.
That was the third pick-six for the Ole Miss defense in 2014, per Ole Miss Football:
The INT also moved Prewitt into seventh place in the Rebels' record books, according to Ole Miss Football:
Texas A&M's offense continued to struggle in the second quarter. The Aggies got down to the Ole Miss 27-yard line but turned the ball over on downs after a botched fake-field-goal attempt.
ESPN's Mike Greenberg was unlikely the only one questioning A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin's decision not to take the three points:
The Aggies dug into the Rebels' lead in the second half, with running back Trey Williams punching it in from three yards out to make it 21-7. A&M took advantage of a short field and breathed life into the Kyle Field crowd. The Aggies looked like they might mount a comeback.
Then Wallace and the Rebels offense ate a little over four minutes off the clock before regaining a 21-point lead, 28-7. Wallace threw a 33-yard touchdown pass to wideout Quincy Adeboyejo with 13 seconds left in the third quarter.
Ole Miss all but shut the door on an Aggies comeback attempt after Rebels linebacker Keith Lewis recovered a Hill fumble and returned it 21 yards for a touchdown, making it a 35-7 game with 14:48 to go in the fourth quarter.
Hill added two touchdown passes to help the Aggies save some face in the final frame.
With the win, Ole Miss made a strong case that it's the best team in the country. Of course, the Rebels will have a strong argument to the contrary coming out of their own state after Mississippi State's 38-23 win over Auburn. The two don't cross paths until Nov. 29.
Next week, the Rebels will hope to maintain their perfect record against Tennessee, which beat Chattanooga 45-10 on Saturday.
Texas A&M is winless against Top 25 teams at Kyle Field under Sumlin (0-5).
CBS Sports' Doug Gottlieb remains perplexed at how the Aggies are unable to win big home games, despite having talented teams and a raucous atmosphere behind them:
Sumlin will try to pick up the pieces after back-to-back losses, but the Aggies' losing skid could easily swell to three with Alabama on tap next Saturday.

LSU Loss Seals Jeff Driskel's Fate, Can Treon Harris Save Will Muschamp's Job
Florida's game vs. LSU in "The Swamp" served as Gator quarterback Jeff Driskel's last stand, and he rolled snake eyes.
After being benched last week in favor of Treon Harris in the win over Tennessee, it looked like Driskel's days as the starting quarterback in Gainesville were done. Suddenly on Monday, news broke that Harris was being investigated for sexual assault, and Driskel was pushed back into the role this week vs. LSU.
Harris was cleared and reinstated late Friday afternoon, but at that point, a full week of practice was gone and it was Driskel's game.
Driskel didn't have a three-interception performance like the one he had against Tennessee, but it was going in that direction—due in part to drops from his receivers.
He completed 14-of-25 passes for 183 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in the 30-27 loss, operating in a very conservative game plan from head coach Will Muschamp and offensive coordinator Kurt Roper.
He hit Demarcus Robinson for 73 yards to set up the game-tying field goal, but after the Gator defense forced a punt to give the ball back to the offense with 0:54 left, Driskel forced a pass over the middle that was picked off by Rickey Jefferson, setting up LSU's game-winning field goal.
Is it "Treon time?"
Muschamp wouldn't say, but the true freshman was in the press box with Roper during the game, according to Matt Murschel of the Orlando Sentinel.
Was Saturday night's loss all on Driskel?
No, not at all. He played with emotion and, while he wasn't a game-changer, he displayed a spark that he hasn't shown in quite some time.
That's the ceiling, though. Harris is more explosive in the running game, and while he may be raw as a passer, he certainly gives Roper the opportunity to be a little more creative with the playbook.
Muschamp knows what's at stake. At 3-2 (2-2 SEC), his job status is dangling perilously on the edge of a cliff, and rocks are giving way with every Driskel interception. Two more losses, and it all might come crashing down.
There's a chance that Harris can save Muschamp and save the season.
The Gators have Missouri at home next week, and would Muschamp rather have Driskel in there against Missouri's pass rush or Harris? He has to know that Driskel will force things. Harris might not.
After that, the Gators will have two weeks to get Harris ready for Georgia, followed by the road trip to Vanderbilt, a home tilt vs. South Carolina, a supposed cakewalk over Eastern Kentucky and an intra-state rivalry game at Florida State.
Is Driskel a better option than Harris against those teams? At this point, it's hard to tell. The unknown, however, should be more comforting for Muschamp.
When Driskel is on, he'll keep Florida in games—even if they're against under-performing defenses like LSU's. "In it" won't cut it, Muschamp needs someone to go win it.
That guy isn't Driskel, but it might be Harris.
He's Muschamp's best option at this point.

It's the Raelians! "Yale Sex Week" Type Push Wrong Way to Fight Female Genital Mutilation
Female genital mutilation is an awful human rights abuse in which girls are cut in ways mostly intended to deprive them of sexual feeling. The point is to keep women subservient. "Taming" sexuality is perceived as a way of keeping women docile and obedient, which in turn, is perceived to promote a stable society.
FGM generally is practiced in very traditional cultures, often (but not exclusively) with a strong Muslim component. That is why I think that a campaign to "celebrate the clitoris" as a means of fighting against the practice and convincing women to seek medical help to remediate having been cut, is not a smart or wise approach. From the CBS Las Vegas story:
A group formed to protest and combat female genital mutilation declared the time between May 6 and May 12 of this year to be the first-ever International Clitoris Awareness Week. The organization, Clitoraid, released a statement Friday about the awareness campaign. "Our first six years of humanitarian work have been dedicated to surgically repairing clitorises for female genital mutilation…victims, and on October 8 we'll open the world's first Clitoral Restoration Hospital," Clitoraid spokesperson Nadine Gary said. "This year, we'll celebrate the sexual pleasure of all women, since all can benefit from more sexual appreciation."
According to the release, Clitoraid is encouraging other women to host events–however formal or informal–that further the organization's objectives and garner more attention for their initiative–and the larger problem it attempts to address. "[The clitoris has] been ignored, vilified, made taboo, and considered sinful and shameful for centuries because of patriarchal religious values," Gary said. "It's time to give this beautiful organ the attention it deserves. It's the only human organ with an exclusive sexual pleasure function!"
Yea, just what those who practice FGM want to hear! That is why the girls are cut. How is this going to be in any way effective?
The cause of ending FGM is more than just. But making the fight against this terrible oppression sound like Yale Sex Week isn't going to play well in traditional societies threatened by what they perceive as the decadence and licentiousness of the West. Indeed, such attitudes are precisely what they are trying to prevent from influencing their girls and women! It might, I suppose, raise a few bucks here and there. But to make an important human rights issue sound like an early feminst bra burning protest is both sophomoric and counter-productive to achieving the goal of actually ending this awful practice where it happens.
Update: Reader Chris informs me that Clitoraid is a Raelian project. So, I did a little digging. Sure enough.
The Raelians are a science cult that fooled the media several years ago with the hoax that its company, Clonaid, had brought a cloned baby into the world. I debated one of their head honchos, and she had brought grieving parents to the meeting to try and convince them Clonaid could clone their dead children! What a dispicable crew for raising money off the bodies of mutilated women.
